That'll make thread navigation more challenging.
No, no, it's very simple:
Natter 35: George
Spike's Bitches 25: George
The Minearverse: George
.....this is why I'm never going to be a stompy, isn't it.
Do you know what else has blood in it? Blood.

Bureaucracy 3: Oh, so now you want to be part of the SOLUTION?
A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Yeah, pretty much.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I like the idea of a stompy pixie wench. With wee bovver boots, presumably.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
So can I change the natter title to something less stupid?
Oh, and has anyone heard from GusThreadkiller since my bout of power madness?

Are you requesting the authority, or just a vote of confidence?

I don't need no stinkin' authority!
Confidence, on the other hand...

That's a big part of our culture here whether Kat likes it or not.
Um, not really about me. I'm not the one who proposed it. I'm not part of a secret bitch cabal that forced Beverly to propose it.
I frankly don't give a shit one way or the other, but I will say people take it all Very Seriously and the sense that each thread needs to show how pithy and clever we are is something I'm done with.
So, please, don't toss my name about, David, as if it's all about me.

Kat, I don't think it's about you. I don't think you're the problem or the issue at all. I think you don't like thead titles though. That was the opinion you expressed. I've never seen you espouse anything in here except a meta non-title. I used your name because I was responding to your opinion. Did I need to quote you specifically? Because it did seem clear that you disliked the names altogether. I don't think that's a misrepresentation.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara
There's a secret bitch cabal? Damn. I'm always the last to know.

I think that thread naming is getting boring, mostly, and for that reason I'd be happy with numbers or randomly-generated names. But I would disagree that the thread-naming process itself has gotten too contentious to do. (I think the people who objected to "Older than Jesus" did so in a calm way.)
